Performance of Seawater-Mixed Recycled-Aggregate Concrete
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2020 , Article)
The use of seawater and recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) in concrete mixtures leads to the production of a very sustainable concrete. The potential risk of steel reinforcement corrosion (due to chloride in the seawater) in ...
Fractional factorial design model for seismic performance of RC bridge piers retrofitted with steel-reinforced polymer composites
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
This study explores the effects of key design parameters on the performance of seismically deficient rectangular cross-section reinforced concrete (RC) bridge piers strengthened with steel-reinforced polymer (SRP) composites. ...
Shear span-to-depth ratio effect on steel reinforced grout strengthened reinforced concrete beams
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
The effect of the shear span-to-depth (a/d) ratio on the shear behavior of steel reinforced grout (SRG)-strengthened reinforced concrete (RC) beams is experimentally investigated. Four critical shear spans corresponding ...
Shear strengthening of reinforced concrete deep beams using near-surface mounted hybrid carbon/glass fibre reinforced polymer strips
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
This study investigated the efficacy of near surface mounted (NSM) hybrid carbon/glass fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) strips for strengthening of shear-deficient reinforced-concrete (RC) rectangular deep beams. A specific ...
Plastic hinge length of rectangular RC columns using ensemble machine learning model
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
It is critical to properly define the plastic hinge region (the region that is exposed to maximum plastic deformation) of reinforced concrete (RC) columns to assess their performances in terms of ductility and energy ...
Externally bonded hybrid carbon/glass FRP strips for shear strengthening of RC deep beams
(
University of Cantabria - Building Technology R&D Group
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The experimental study on the shear strengthening the efficacy of a recently introduced hybrid carbon/glass fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) for reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams has been presented in this study. The hybrid ...
Shear strengthening of RC beams with steel reinforced grout (SRG)
(
University of Cantabria - Building Technology R&D Group
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Steel reinforced grout (SRG) has shown to be an efficient and cost-effective strengthening solution for reinforced concrete (RC) structures. With regard to RC beams, the experimental studies to date have focused mainly on ...
Cost effectiveness of reinforcement alternatives for a concrete water chlorination tank
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Reinforced concrete tanks in water/wastewater treatment plants are susceptible to severe corrosion due to aggressive exposure conditions resulting from the application of certain treatment chemicals and methods. Non-corrosive ...
Simplified compression field theory-based model for shear strength of fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix-strengthened reinforced concrete beams
(
American Concrete Institute
, 2020 , Article)
Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems are becoming an excellent choice for the shear strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams owing to their excellent structural performance and compatibility with the ...
Effect of using multiple fabric plies on the tensile behaviour of carbon textile reinforced mortar
(
University of Cantabria - Building Technology R&D Group
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Recently, textile reinforced mortar (TRM) has emerged as a viable strengthening material for reinforced concrete (RC) and masonry structures. Understanding the TRM tensile behaviour is important to achieve an accurate ...
